Introducing auxpope @auxpope

Auxpope is a Portland-based DJ known for deeply community-focused, multi-genre sets built to keep people moving. His sound draws heavily from the roots of dance music, with a particular focus on styles connected to the Black diaspora, blending the soulful warmth of disco and Chicago house with the futurism of Detroit techno. His sets live in a space between familiarity and discovery, creating moments where dancers feel both grounded and surprised.

Beyond DJing, Auxpope is the founder and station manager of Samewave Radio, a community-driven platform supporting a growing network of over 70 artists. He has shared stages with acts like Zack Fox, Regal 86, Mark Broom, and Nanoos, and hosts Wav Length Radio every second Sunday. At its core, his goal is simple: to create movement, whether physical, emotional, or something in between.

Catch auxpope next Friday for our Halloween event! Tickets are available in our bio.

Adapting to change was the grand theme of this year’s Canyon Vibration, and we’re so proud of the work and community building behind it.

Special thanks to everyone who pivoted with us to the new location and brought canyon magic to the orchard, to the artists who delivered incredible performances despite ever-changing logistics, and to our production crew who shaped the event from the moment they set foot on the new site.

Thank you @starmooringfarm and the Richmond family for trusting us with a much larger gathering than they’ve ever held on their idyllic property.

Thank you to all firefighters protecting Tygh Valley, our home site and the surrounding communities from the Grasshopper Fire.

Thank you @whitebirdclinic, @giantlife and our phenomenal security team for keeping our attendees and staff safe and healthy in so many ways.

@silpher led sound and transportation logistics, doing the hard-hard work of setting up and tearing down sound systems multiple times a day.

@savannahniven, our production lead, adapted and led with grace through constant change.

@robotlegs, our operations lead, ran entry logistics, gate volunteers, comms and a zillion other details.

@thenoblerobot and @alt.angeles lit up one of our area’s greatest trees, and @hasmood lit the way through the labyrinth-like orchard.

@dizzydylanpdx managed the orchard stage, drawing on 5 years of Canyon Vibration experience.

@spencr provided and troubleshot sound, handled Tornado’s hospitality, rocked the orchard till sunrise and, of course, co-founded @canyonvibration and the Occasion Vibration events that preceded it.

Graey, @carrot_bowl_bonnie and @danoinmotion_ kept us loose with yoga and exercise classes.

@glittergoblin curated a wonderful daytime beading workshop and brings joy everywhere.

@eg_83, @collectingbruises and @sof_hunny kept us dripped out in canyon merch and presented key info in style.

Lastly, thank you to the former partners who laid the groundwork for this event and team: @leeonntechno, @spencerrussell and @dj_menage_love.

More from us soon.

SATURDAY ☀️ SET TIMES

Connor Newton, better known by his stage name FANTAST, is a Portland-based DJ specializing in tech house, minimal bass, progressive house, and UK speed garage.

With his first original releases on the horizon, FANTAST hopes to share the feeling that first made him fall in love with dance music: letting go and getting lost in the moment.

Barcelona based, Adriana Lopez brings over two decades of technical precision as head of her Grey Report and a core artist on Oscar Mulero’s PoleGroup. Joining her is Ana RS, one of underground techno’s most compelling rising artists with standout releases on Semantica and Symbolism.

In our second room, we’re switching up the energy with upbeat selections designed strictly to get the entire room moving. This room is curated entirely by Portland locals. Featuring DJ Shortstop b2b Harmless Light, Patrona, Kraftwitch & Auxpope.
